Time to bump this thread. Got confirmation of my 2016 M5 Azurite/Silverstone order today. It will look exactly like EdM5's car. Went with extended instead of full leather for a couple of reasons. My E60 M5 Full leather dash shrunk around the defrost vents. I was past warranty and was quoted $7000 just for parts(fortunately my dealer decided to cover the cost). I also like the contrast of Black/Silverstone more in the extended leather. Full leather has too much white.

For whatever reason the GSM was not able to get the Build to change colors in their system, he even emailed his guy at the port to try to make the changes. These guys aren't new at this either. That's when I asked them to get in touch with Maria.

I wonder if BMW is stopping production earlier than expected and the system is starting to limit options.

Looks like mine is finished, waiting for me to pick it up in 8 weeks.

Have Jet Black now -- it was a huge move out of my comfort zone to move to Azurite Black. The dealer had one here, so went back to see it in many different sunlight settings.

Pictures coming in Sept!

By the way I freakin' love this beast Best Bimmer I've ever had by a mile!

Update:
The car is now on the comp pack wheels. Although I think it's a shame that the CP wheels are non-forged, I think they're actually good looking. So, I decided to use them as a winter set (including michelin winter tyres). Today we had a few hours of sunshine so I took a few pictures. Azurite looks glorious on sunny days.
Can you please post what size are your Michelin PA4s ?

Opinions on azurite

After having the car since April I am routinely surprised by the azurite paint. In low light it borders on looking plain old black. I find myself thinking - why the hell did I pay extra for that paint. On sunny days....well...

Picked it up yesterday. I didn't take any pictures as I was in a hurry and had to get back to work. Love the color. I will say that I will miss the looks of my M4 but thats about it.

I finally had a chance to give it a bath. Sitting with the wife's S5. The S5 is in dire need of a good detail.

Azurite Black Metallic

This thread hasn't had a post in quite awhile. I love the exterior color. This is my 2014 with Cashmere Beige and Black interior. In my biased opinion I think it is a stunning color combo. I recently tinted the windows as well.

Enjoy!
